Karma validates volumetric breast density measurement tool

KARMA is the first study validating the performance of a volumetric breast density software (VolparaDensity) in a large-scale setting. Results of the study show that distributions of volumetric density are similar across different vendor platforms and that Volpara breast density is associated with established density determinants and breast cancer risk.
